Carmen's dance. A fantasy of Spanish flamenco and opera: A Fantasy of Spanish Flamenco and Opera, édition en langue anglaise (Ear books) - Hardcover

CARMEN - as the title figure of the opera of the same name, she has become a legend. Her name is synonymous with the self-assured, passionate Spanish woman, love and jealousy, Seville and ultimately with flamenco, which unites great emotions in music, dance and song. Heading away from the beaten tourist track, photographers Tina Deininger and Gerhard Jaugstetter have gone in search of the Carmen myth and have captured the authentic flamenco style in dramatic pictures. Vibrant flamenco guitars, Spanish orchestral works and music from the opera "Carmen" accompany these fascinating images and will take you on art enchanting journey to the roots of Spanish passion.

Tina Deininger, born in 1935 in Hanover, and Gerhard Jaugstetter, born in 1956 in Geiselwind (both Germany), live in the South of Germany and both worked for some years as photographers in the advertising business, before establishing their own photographic studio in 1986. Since 1992, they have been exhibiting regularly in Germany and abroad. Their photos have been used as book title pictures by a number of renowned publishers, and huge numbers of their images are to be found in private and public collections. Their photographic travels frequently take them to Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking countries, such as Andalucía, where the photographs were shot for Carmen's Dance.
